Create A Proverb: The Game!
 

Let me say this to start... I don't have a face on my chest.

Anyway, the object of the game is to post a proverb. That is it. Let me demonstrate.

"Books in a library are great company until you realize you need people to write new ones."

And there you have it.

"Who dares, wins."

One cannot believe in something they know nothing of.

"It is better to have loved and to have lost than to listen to an album by Olivia Newton John."

"To wonder is better for learning than comprehension is."

"True depression is happily repeating the failures of your ancestors."

I have no clue if these even make sense. :confused:

I understand them.

"A master of invisibility knows how to remain unseen; a master of camoflauge knows how different situations affect visibility."

Grandmother said this...

I got one I created recently, I do wonder if anyone will get it.

"The only consolation of time is that it passes."

Though I know why the caged bird sings, that doesn't change the fact that I want it to shut up.

The caged bird sees life as it is, but is doomed to helplessness in the cage. :)

I hope I'm not the only one in here who knows where that came from :lol

Those who says they live without regrets, live in denial.

That's actually pretty good. This is fun but I can't figure out what to say now.

Me too.

I came up with a few.

"It's not about whether you win or lose the game, but rather if you survive long enough to go do something more productive with your life than playing a stupid game. (Don't ask about what it would be like if you view life as a game.)"

"If you are not known, your only support is no one."

"Though I may have the hands of a surgeon, that does not mean I have the tools of a surgeon."

And, finally,

"Effort is spelled with an "E," you illiterate imbecile!"

Nice. I can tell you put a lot of affurt into those. :thumb:

Thank you, you ironic turtle-man. :p

"The only given is that there is no given."

Those who dwell on the past won't be ready for the future.

That is all I've got right now.

"Just because I lack confidence does not mean I am inconfident."

Starscreamer original....

"Quit complaining for some people pay to be treated like that..."

"If you do not stop fighting, then pirates will steal your ship"

"When life gives you lemons...make life take the lemons back"

"It doesn't matter...sugar is sugar"

Excellent stuff, I know where that is from!

Here's one from me today:

Depression is seeing the wind sway the trees through a glass window without being able to feel it.

if at first one doesn't succeed...buy her another tankard of mead

"Pain may be Weakness leaving the body, but Weakness doesn't have to be such a canker-blossom about it."

"The hypothesizer has fun. The explorer has more fun than the hypothesizer. The one who explores and hypothesizes has the most fun."

"Those who make generalizations make only generalizations."

Based on a post by MnemonicSyntax.

"A picture is worth a song of 1,000 words. Unfortunately, we may not know all of them, or the veracity of them."

"Knowledge, experience, power, and talent are meaningless if you lack the intelligence to use them."

"There is no honor in being bested by an aggressor wielding a rubber chicken. Only shame."

I just came up with a few more:

*"I would much rather have one close friend than an army of aquaintances."

*"You might be a frog living in a well, but sometimes it's better to be inside the well."

Someone in my Cyber Arts class said this to my teacher and I thought it was funny.

"It's not supposed to be exact, it's abstract."

"Do not push what you can pull."

A fool who does not listen will soon lose his ears.

A fruit that condemns it's tree will wither faster than the others on it's branch when the tree is felled.

A thousand guards will not lessen the blow of a thief's plunder.

The only bounds my generosity knows are those of my wallet.

"There is a point where imagination becomes knowledge."

"Ones who will not speak against, will not change the world"

"The truth is needed to be told if you really love somebody, but it can destroy a relationship if misunderstood"

"Its all Decade's fault"

That's all I got

Being stupid is one thing, getting caught being stupid is another.

"When the going gets tough, the tough put on glasses"

i'm sorry Urataros but i will post this whether you like it or not.
